大運河＆ゴンドラギャラリー™の魅力的なゴンドラライド

Change in cruise ship schedule meant we could not do the gondola ride at the scheduled time. They could not give an earlier time. We lost our money.

Watch your step getting on and off the gondola. My sister almost fell getting off the gondola boat..

The description said 45min. The ride was less than 20min and the person that was controlling the boat was on his phone half the time or talking to other boats. Was not enjoyable at all. The sad part is what was vested in to get here.

We arrived timely for our ride celebrating my partners birthday and retirement and were standing 15-20m away from the group (which was not identified as our gondola ride- there were several similar groups in the same place). When we asked, we were told to stay then check in. We did as instructed but after a few minutes we approached the office- where we were then told we were 7 minutes late and would have to pay for another reservation. That we were stunned is an understatement. It was a shockingly poor response and we declined to pay more money for a ride we booked and attended timely. There were literally hundreds of people standing around looking for groups for gondola rides. So we didn't get the gondola ride and subsequently booked an entirely different tour- one that provided exceptional service. Making lemons out of lemonade worked out but i wouldn’t recommend this particular gondola ride experience.

Uninterested gondolier. Didn’t greet us, didn’t speak the entire trip except to other gondoliers. Didn’t point anything out to the passengers. The routes seem overcrowded. Tourist trap.

This was a horrible experience. First the gondola guy did not even speak to anyone on the boat. Not even a hello, how are you. Nothing. He was on FaceTime the entire ride which made it hard to even talk, then he would just yell at everyone around him. He never asked to take our photo, it was silence. There was parts where the boat was rocking back and forth and he was still on his phone. If you are wanting something relaxing and romantic, go with a company that has experience. We were on the water for maybe all of 12 mins. We did one small circle. It’s just false advertisement and not at all what we were hoping for. I would give it 0 stars if I could.

We really enjoy our sunset Gondola ride and shared it with 3 other people (not bad). We only wished our gondolier didn’t chat the entire time with the gondolier in front of us. It would have been better to listen to Italian music. Other than this, we throughly enjoyed it!

The directions and the timing is completely off. We were there waiting. And then when we finally got a hold of the company, they told us that we needed to go inside the building. That was not in the instructions. And then we lost the tour. They just said oh well

Pleasant and special to do in the area. Our experience only last 20 minutes though, not the "approximate" 45 minutes.

Gondola ride mandatory if you are in Venice. The gondolier was very nice and very kind. Recommended as an experience
